This week has been the 7am start work week with lots of uni stuff due. Tired but wired. Sleep deprived but slowly sleeping earlier! Submitted stuff a little late but getting through it. Next week will be better
You got dis one!
Sounds like you’ve got this 🙂👍
Hehe thank you :) I’m sure I will get through it!!
I’m gonna recreate The Slab from KFC for dinner tomorrow night for me and the kid. Soft rolls, bbq sauce, cheese sauce, popcorn chicken. Easy.
The Slab is an affront to god (that I would have tried by now if I wasn’t certain it would inflict on myself severe gastrointestinal distress).
Slept for 7 hours uninterrupted. Luxury!!
This level of sleepage is unheard of by those in my household aged between 13 and 79 lol
I think last time I made waffles I must have done a half batch. This time I did a full batch and I now have 16 waffles in the freezer for future consumption, along with a couple in my tummy.
I also stewed up my remaining apples and pears with some spice & brown sugar, a couple of serves are in the freezer, one was eaten on the waffles and one is waiting to be topped with yoghurt for a future snack. I’m starting to run out of room in the freezer!
Anyone know how Chemist Warehouse’s App works for ordering prescriptions? Kinda getting annoyed at the 20 minute wait and would like to be able to order to pickup
My hayfever is still raging. 😠
wtf this weather, just keep getting random rain , I have painting to do 🫥
have zero motivation anyway 😔
ok, i’ll just do easy stuff like putting everything away in it’s right place, at least that’s something
Okay I’ve definitely had way too much caffiene and too much work time because my eyes feel very googly and I got that wired/tired thing going on. Someone make me dinner and take out the rubbish and put away the clothes and pack my bags for me please…
…wait, that someone has to be me? Bummer. 😮💨 Gotta remind myself of my trip, true rest and recuperation is around the corner…
My father kept us imprisoned in the house. He would take me to and from school, and my mother to and from work.
Sometimes I would be allowed to go with him to do the weekly food shopping. That was it. The rest of the time, we were props from him to unleash his insanity onto.
As I grew older, my mother convinced him to let her take me to the doctor with her, by ourselves. She would then tell me to go visit with friends, then we would meet back up and go home together, with him none the wiser.
Sometimes my mother is in my dreams and for a split second when I wake up I have forgotten she has passed away.
What a life it has been.
I’m glad you made it out and are here now.
Stories like this one, make me tear up knowing there are families out there living in forced nightmares.
Wouldn’t hesitate to sue if I can. All proceeds from the suit for a parenting licensing scheme.
Both my parents were the prison wardens of my life; without hijacking your post I’ll just say I grew up in a very uncharacteristic way for someone born early 70s. All those memes where they say they rode bikes all day with their friends and had to come home before the street lights came on and mucked about building cubbies etc., I cannot at all relate to. It’s hard when you can be long out of an abusive situation and it still just randomly pops up for no reason, like you’re out of it but never really free. It took a shamefully long time into my adulthood to realise that I am an adult, and have to employ my own initiative in life. I’m glad you’re out of that situation, and I hope the random “pop up” trauma doesn’t trouble you too much 🙏🏼
I’m sorry you went through that.
I truly understand how you feel ❤️
Bro. thats… thats so shit. I’m glad you are free now. Cant physically hug ya so go stand in front of a mirror give yourself a big hug and pretend for me, ok?
Ahoy there m’hearties! It do be Talk Like a Pirate Day! 🏴☠️
1 seeder 200 leachers.
Arrrrr!
I feel a pirate song coming on.
Anybody what anything from Aldi while I’m down there? Milk, bread, power tool?
Some beef mince, burger buns, cheese, bacon and sauce if you wouldn’t mind.
I’m craving burgers!
I think I am too now.
Ooh, may I please have some salted pretzel chocolate? Thank you! And if there’s something crafty and cheap from the Middle Aisle of Dreams, that would be so fun, thank you!
Will do.
Laundrite powder and Logix Platinum dishwasher tablets. And chocolate!
They have proper peanut m&ms there now which is good and bad news.
Ooh I’ll take some of those please
4 packets of peanut m&ms
1 for you 3 for me.
😮🤤
some lactose free milk please, do they have lactose free condensed milk?
No. I’ve never seen condensed milk there but I have seen evaporated milk.
They do have lactose free milk both fresh and long life.
evaporated is actually what I meant , it’s for in coffee
Oh. I had a look for condensed anyway and they do have it. Wasn’t there when I needed it.
gratin please mother
Such beautiful manners. Of course anything for you, now clean your room.
thank you mother, yes mother
Felafel mix please, theirs is quite good
Question. What’s in a falafel mix? I’ve only ever made them from scratch.
It’s really just pre-herbed flour. But if you don’t do much else with besan it’s handy rather than having loads of plain in the house for moths to get at.
Interesting because when you make them from scratch you don’t put much flour in. Maybe just a small sprinkle if it’s too moist for frying.
Gin! mine is always out of gin!
@CEOofmyhouse56
Their dark choc is better than most other brands that sell for twice the price.
@Seagoon_Better than Whittaker’s?
Much!
2 boxes of spinach and ricotta flavour potato gratin please.
Noted. I’ll also grab you a box of their spinach mini quiches to try because they are really good.
Hmm… I’m a fan of the Trimat sensitive laundry sauce, the dark chocolate, and I used to like the Lacura red tub face cream. (Do they still have it?)
The soy milk and bread are also the same thing as elsewhere, pretty solid
They have a lot of alternative long life milks for cheaper.
I think they still have the red Lacura but it’s a special buy. I’ll see what I can magic up.
Eggs. Local colesworth was fresh out of them last night. 1 doz of the largest size with the longest useby date please.
Oooo. You are pushing your luck there love. How about I pop over to the local IGA and get you a 30 pack of farm fresh eggs. You can share with your neighbours.
Thank you very kindly. Trade goods rating AAAAA++. Should be able to swap for tomato seedlings at the very least.
Everyone gets a present.
Does my bum look big in this?
No girl. You look beautiful.
That means she’s just going to appropriate a smaller box… or all of them.
Kitty!!!
Hello beautiful!
The trap is working
Well fuck, there goes any plans getting anymore food. I fucking hate my life.
Maybe we should become like Russians. Accept that life is mostly awful with a few moments of happiness.
I’m trying to keep a hold of my stress and anxiety but I think it’s blowing out.
I won’t feel better about it till tomorrow or the day after to see if I can get some extra payments come in hopefully.
Totally ruined my plans for for the next few days.
It’s an underrated philosophy 😂
What’s wrong dude? Do you at least have some basic food to last you a few days or can get some?
I can find some resources
I got enough food in the freezer, tons of pasta and noodles to get me by.
I was hoping to be able to treat myself to some extra food like homemade burgers and stuff but something unexpected happened and drained my reserves to be able to do that.
Also can’t afford to fill up on petrol so I’m basically going to save as much travelling as I can for the moment.
Oh good. Well not good, but not dire.
Sorry. I just saw ‘can’t get more food’ and panicked.
I wish I had more bread however.
i’m hoping for a few things to fall into place either tomorrow or next week that might enable me to pick up some stuff.
Fingers crossed, unexpected financial hits are terrifying
Had a dream that UFC was on at the MCG and I had lounge tickets, so I went and took my cat. Just carried him around with me and he was entranced because there was a parade of women wearing huge, sparkly ballgowns. The food in the lounge sucked and tbh it kind of resembled some old rich person’s house with pale pink carpets and curtains. Pretty sure I went ringside and watched a fight, but the cat wasn’t enjoyed it, so we went back up to the lounge. Cat and I went home where I found out that Lizzo was going to be playing at the AFL Grand Final alongside Katy Perry.
Better than dreaming about needing to prove myself at work, I guess!
Aussie WT20 Vs NZ on tv at the moment.
5/119 NZ at the moment, 17 overs.
I missed the start but at least I get to see the Aussie bat. Hope we get them!
On what platform?
Free to air.
7 mate
Cool thanks.
And a win for the Aussies!
